Possible AR GTG

[VickieP]

Hip, Hip Horray (bet you thought I was gonna say replacement, lol) Beth and Peaches are coming...... I gotta hurry up and run to town, getting ready for Bonnie should she blow this way!

[sharon]

Sharon, is your boychick still coming? Do you know when?

I just talked to him yesterday, he's coming but not sure of the days yet, depends on who he can blackmail to get days off or something. He just bought a new truck and he was so jazzed about that he wasn't making sense...either that or he had been working on the recipe for Alligator Piss!! He only lives 40 or 50 miles from there, so he may come and go. Said he may bring his boat down if any one wants to go crappie fishing. (And before there are any smart remarks, crappie is a fish!)

[BirdbyBird]

Woof woof woof woof....(Herschel asks if morning puppy walks are on the schedule cause he knows what he plans on doing some of those AM times. ) ...and he really was looking forward to meeting Ms Abby with or without the maid outfit.....he doesn't know what a maid is.....something to do with cleaning but he isn't exposed to much cleaning around here...as little as possible. He does understand if Abby needs to stay home and keep George company if George decides not to come. That is an important job.....

And don't worry anybody (except Mitch) about any unplanned meals...we found out in Nashville that if you show up around Mitch's trailer just to visit or talk at any meal/snack times there will be food served. and it was good Not that we did it on purpose you understand...at least not that first time...but now we are more experienced.

Remember the traveling Flamingo gift exchange is based on low cost.... Wrapping can be pretty stuff if you have it but I have also seem some very colorful Sunday comics recycled! Brown paper bags with hand drawn notes and pictures.... The gift start out wrapped but as Carol from experience/wisdom reminds us...you can't judge a book by its cover!

Now I have to decide whether or not to take in the post gtg gig......I say yes and worry about time frames and bills later.....will let you know after the decision is complete....

Will we be "that group" over there that needs to be hushed by the hosts? But then if I remember by the time the early morning dogs got walked, the lunches got eated, the card games got played, the trips got tripped, an occasional e-mail check, (No Naps! ) and the dinners get fixed and shared....the campfires start getting pretty quiet as some of us, with the help of a little wine, start falling asleep in the chairs. Then again there were the police lights a flashing in FL........

[Carolinagal]

Oh Tina, maybe you shouldn't mention the police lights a flashing, there are several of us going to be there from the Fl. GTG and we all want to put our best foot forward for these other ladies, we haven't met yet. Don't want them knowing, we've already had to run from the law, OOPs, I didn't mean to let that out But, it was exciting , wasn't it?

One reason we fell asleep so early in Fl. after our funfilled days, was it was freezing out there and the wine and hot chocolate warmed us up enough, made us sleepy, got dark early too. Now, hopefully our nights will be just right over there.

Beth, I know what you're saying, I have just been hoping it would work out where you could come. I think its time for many of us, to just have fun, I know setting here since last Jan. has sure taxed my Hitch Itch. Found out this morning, I need to get me more in shape, then I am, thats for sure. one measly little job, and I felt a hundred yrs. old and was totally wiped out for a couple of hrs. That is NOT going to work in my plans or scheme of things. Along with getting the r.v. ready to go, have to do some work on me too. The mind is ok, I know I can do anything I want to, its the body, been lazy here too long and kind of took me unaware.

So glad all who are coming are coming, trying to be the biggest GTG yet isn't it? Curiousity of meeting our hostesses, think has some coming. Hey, you all won't be sorry, they are what they are

Dear Abby, I'm so disappointed that you might not come, I so wanted to meet you, we just might have to go over to your house, if you don't come this time. I'll tell my mommie, she usually listens to me(most of the time) From Maggie P.S. (I loved your outfit, only I would love it in RED) In case, you didn't know it, Peaches is bigger then me, and I really haven't found a guy yet, I would FIGHT over Thats a lesson, my mommie, keeps trying to teach me anyway.

SHRIMP!!!!! Love it, allergic to it I'm game for trying anything as long as there is something worthwhile to wash it down with Sharon, bringing my Zumba outfit Gotta look the part, you know PS tgm doesn't look too good in any of those outfits and he puts his foot down when it comes to a leash (at least one that anyone can see ) carold

The group has grown to a point where we're going to need more tables than Vickie & I have for serving food .
Any portable tables out there that are willing to travel to Arkansas and be put to good use?

Maybe, have to measure and see if my 6 footer will fit in the bottom bay. I'll let you know when I get back from Oregon.

[Bethers]

I'll have 2 small outside tables with me. Of course they can be used. (My rig is small, I'm small, so are my tables )

[carold]

Only have 2 small side tables, but will bring over our picnic table if they have one. carold

[Bethers]

OH yeah, can see us now - 10 picnic tables all at one site. Ranger giving us the "look" - hahaha

[carold]

Maybe we should change the name of this thread-any ideas out there????? carold

Dear Maggie,

My Mommy told me you can come here to The Blue Marlin ANY time you want!
And as long as you don't sniff my butt, you and I will get along just fine.
If you sniff, there could be a momentary issue. (I get that from my Mom...she doesn't like that much, either.)

Mom and Dad are still negotiating. I'm part of the negotiations. I hate that.

PS: As far as you being smaller, it's ain't quantity. It's quality!

Love,
Abby

I have 2 small tables that will be with me if we need them.

Yippee Carold and tGM are coming Can't wait to meet you guys.

Beth's coming and is going to be my neighbor!!! Oh Boy! It's gonna be a fun, fun, time.

None of that cheese for me Gosh, can't believe how we are growing!! Come on Beck, I'm waiting to hear if you are gonna be my roomie.

[Bethers]

You realize how many Carol's and Caroylyn's we have coming? Might as well just call all us women Carol and be done with it

[sunshinecruiserTN]

That's because Carolyn and the version of such are the best, I can see why you all want to be one too.

Oh yea, I already know what my gift is gonna be and everyone is gonna want it! Ooooooo I'm so excited about everything from seeing everyone again to meeting new sistahs. You all will be surprised that Sedona has been a little more socialized since you met her at the TN gtg. Mitch I don't think she will take your finger off again unless you come into her house. LOL
